I am a WLS veteran (weight Loss surgery) of 6 yrs +. I am sorry to say I've let that victory and control slip through my fingers because I got lazy. Someone who is an Obesity person knows better than this. Obesity is a disease and one must stay on top of it, always!! I have failed in doing that and abused the weight loss tool I fought so hard to get. I am a 60+ yr old grandmother and great grandmother and help to manage one of the largest food pantry's in the state of Maine alongside with my dear best friend and husband. Today my Dr. said I best get back on the wagon and take back control of my eating habits before it is too late. Please, is there anyone else out there going through the same thing as I? we WLS grannies need all the support we can get. To top it all off, I suffer from asthma and Osteoporosis and pain all the time. Makes exercising hard to do. Soooooo I am going to start walking at least 10 minutes every day either outside or on the treadmill to start with.

I started Sparking in June of 2007. By using Spark and some self discovery along the way, I'm down 50 pounds, and am holding steady at a healthy weight. Spark is a massive site, you'll be discovering new and exciting things for months to come! Diet is a dirty word, every time I hear it, I wash my mouth out with chocolate
